In the absence of an officer or N.C.O. in the enfilading party the thrower commands and is responsible that signals be given that the artillery know the exact extent of our frontage at all times. This is done by means of a flag which is khaki colored on the enemy’s side and red on our own side, so that it can be easily picked up by our artillery, the flag being maintained in a correct position by the use of a double flag-staff. At night the signal may be given by the use of flashes or any other pre-arranged signals. The carrier’s duty is to follow up and keep supplied with a stock of bombs, and to pass back information, messages and orders. SYLLABUS. PRELIMINARY TRAINING. Period of Six Days.
